I just recenly purchased a Campy compatiable pair of Reynolds Solitudes.
These wheels are not supplied with a lock ring. I've purchased Campy
wheels w/ lock rings (duh!) and Mavic wheels w/ lock rings. Of the Campy
compatible wheels on the market which ones are sold w/ rings and which are
not? TIA

Alternatively, you can get a Campy hubset, that comes with a Campy lockring!
Build the Campy hubs with db spokes, a nice rim from a variety of mfrs and
be done with it. What's not to like?

Campagnolo lockrings are cheap and universally available, IRD also has a
new one to fit. Why not just buy one? Of course bfd is right -
Campagnolo hubs are, I admit, a much better idea.

Most are not..go to a decent bike shop and buy one, or like others
have mentioed, have a good wheelbuilder build you a set of wheels
around Campagnolo hubs..light, reliable, cheaper by far with
comparable hubs.

And this does not either. But since you have other Campagnolo wheels
about, try one of those lockrings on the Reynolds wheels. Should/
might work just fine. That is what I did when I acquired a Shamal
rear wheel at a great price. Sans lockring.
 
Usually, suppliers of Campy compatible hubs supply a lockring. Campy
supplys the hubs with lockring and cassettes, excepting 11t ones, w/o
w/o lockring.

I've forgotten which brand, supplied a Campy compatible lockring that
used a Shimano lockring tool.

Camp lockrings are very costly ~$20 but you can get generics for maybe
$10 or less.
